After more than three days of tiring travel, Qi Shu finally arrived at his mother-in-law's house in Jiangnan, a luxurious courtyard on the edge of Jiangnan Town.

To be honest, although Qi Shu was invited to be a guest, Qi Shu felt a little strange about what she thought, but she couldn't say what was strange.

It was noon when Qi Shu arrived, and he had already arrived in Jiangnan the night before, but he stayed in the town for one night and repaired it slightly, after all, he came here in the dust, and if he went to see people with a disgraced face, it was really not Qi Shu's character.

So for one night in Jiangnan Town, Mozhu and Green Tangerine were taken out shopping by the guards, while Qi Shu stayed at the place of accommodation to spread paper and write letters to ensure safety.

first sent a letter to Qi's house, and then wrote a letter of peace to Ning Ze, which was something that Qi Shu had agreed with Ning Ze before leaving, and of course Ning Ze forced her.

The scenery of the south of the Yangtze River is very good, full of vitality and greenery, even the rivers and lakes encountered along the way are very clear, and the pedestrian fruit trees encountered are very surprising.

Qi Shu met an old man on the road and talked a few words, and she wrote this incident into a letter to Ning Ze.

It was the second day of Qi Shu's departure.

In April, the weather is already a little hot, people are a little unbearable, at noon passing by a tea stall, a very simple bamboo pole, the pole head is tied with a white worn cloth, fixed with three small bamboo strips, on the book: tea is so bare, there is no decoration.

There was a boxy low wooden table, two small benches, and two or three low wooden piers next to it, which were very simple. As for the teapots and tea bowls on the table, they are all kind of coarse porcelain bowls, and some of them are missing, which looks very inferior. There was also a very casual stove next to the tea table, like a stone building, on which a boiler was boiling water, and the boiling water was an old man in coarse linen clothes.

When the guards saw this small tea stall, they naturally didn't look twice, let alone stop to rest or anything.

But along the way, Qi Shu lifted the curtain and enjoyed the scenery outside the window, and the attendant told her that they had arrived in Jiangnan, and this was already a good scenery in Jiangnan.

Qi Shu's mood also blossomed all the way.

"The sun is not small, rest your feet, it's been a long time." Qi Shu said to the green orange beside her, motioning for her to convey the meaning of everyone stopping and resting.

Because there are many people and things, it won't take long for Qi Shu and them to let all the people rest and rest without being so tired, after all, they are not in a hurry, walk slowly, the journey itself is tiring, in case the rest is not good, everyone will inevitably have some resentment in their hearts, so Qi Shu thinks very clearly.

The two-day journey was dragged to more than three days.

"Uncle, do you sell tea?" Qi Shu, who got out of the carriage, was very interested in this old man who sold tea in this remote place, although his hair was white and his back was a little rickety, but his expression was clear, his eyes were sharp and shrewd, and he felt that this person was good when he looked at him.

"Sell." A slightly old and hoarse voice.

"How to sell? How much is a bowl? ”

"Whatever you want."

"How much is free?"

"Look at it."

"How much does it look like?"

"You see how much it's worth."

"I don't think it's worth it, your coarse porcelain tea bowl, I don't know what kind of tea it puts when the water is boiling, what if it doesn't taste good?"

"You female doll, do you want to fight against me? Love to drink or not! ”

Ho, and a little grumpy! Qi Shu was talking energetically, but he didn't pull Mozhu to the side, signaling that if Qi Shu wanted to drink tea, they would have tea ready, and there was no need to ask the old man.

"It's very interesting for me to think of this old man, so let's talk about it casually." Qi Shu patted Mo Zhu's hand, signaling that she knew what she knew, don't worry, and turned back to tease the old man.

"I said, uncle, if I don't think this tea tastes good, do you have to pay me upside down?" Qi Shu ran to the old man's side again, and whether his clothes were soiled or not, he sat on the bench where the old man was also sitting, and watched him boil water and make tea.

"You doll is such a scoundrel, look at you with so many maids and servants, why can't you even drink a sip of water? And you want to run to me to make things difficult for me, what kind of heart do you have? Although the old man said it, he only looked at Qi Shu from the corner of his eye, and did not look at Qi Shu squarely.

"Passers-by drink your tea, why can't I drink it?"

"This is for the poor people to drink, it seems that you are a young lady from a wealthy family, what are you doing drinking such coarse tea?"

"There is a saying that everyone who comes is a guest, and since I am sitting in your tea shop, that is your guest, how is it different from other people?"

"It's no different."

"So, your tea stall doesn't have a clear price, and it doesn't say that people like me can't drink it, so why can't I discuss it with you?"

"Pedanty, I don't have time to pay attention to you, go away." The old man was annoyed by Qi Shu's entanglement, so he began to pick up people, he just wanted to build a tea stall here to drink tea on a whim, how could he still meet this kind of person?

"There is no village in front of the village, there is no store in the back, there are no mountains and rivers, and the weeds on both sides of the road are taller, but I don't know where the old man came from?"

"Where did it matter to you? Drink your tea and shut up! The old man waved his hand impatiently.

"Then I'll take a drink."

"......" still drank his tea after going around for a long time.

Qi Shu asked Green Tangerine to bring her the coarse porcelain tea bowl on the low table next to her, and then took a sip.

The green orange was a little disgusted, because she saw some grass leaves on it, and she wanted to twist it off, but she couldn't reach in.

Without hesitation, Qi Shu took the coarse porcelain tea bowl and handed it to his lips to take a sip, and then quietly aftertasted it.

The reason why he dared to drink the tea on this tea stall was because Qi Shu also saw this old man drinking the tea he had brewed when he was in the carriage. But in the eyes of the old man, this Qi Shu is afraid that there is something wrong with his brain, and he doesn't drink bad if he is good.

"How?" Although he felt that there was something wrong with Qi Shu, the old man was still a little nervous, after all, this tea was picked and fried by himself.

"Uncle, I didn't say you, this tea is too bitter!" Qi Shu's little face was wrinkled together, and her expression was very exaggerated, but she didn't spit out the tea.

"Fart! Which tea is not bitter? "Does this girl doll drink tea? Grew up from snack candy? He had never drunk any good tea in his life, so he felt that the tea he grew was the best, and Jiangnan was also rich in tea.

"The so-called bitter, two sweet and three aftertastes, I only drank the bitter taste of the uncle's tea, which was unpleasant! It's not delicious! Qi Shu pondered for a moment and commented.

"Why do I feel sweet when I drink it?" The old man asked rhetorically.

"The way of tea is not just about sweetness!"

"You know what!"

"Zi Fei me, how does it taste like to taste tea?"

"Zi Fei me, do you know what my tea tastes like?"

"This tea is really not delicious."

"This tea is good!"

The old and the young are like this, and you and I are fighting each other, and no one is willing to give in.

Qi Shu was originally looking for a joke, although the uncle's tea is not a first-class tea, but it tastes barely good, although it is rough, but this tea is very well cared for.

But this old man had to argue with Qi Shu, but he refused to give in, so in the end, he argued and argued, and it became that Qi Shu couldn't bear to let him get angry, so he followed him and said that the tea was very good.

But in this way, the old man was unhappy again, because Qi Shu did not insist on his position, but said things against his will because he let him, how could he bear it?

So, the conversation became something like this.

"I said your tea was so good!"

"I believe in your evil, and I obviously say that this tea is not good!"

"Okay, good, the tea is really good." Qi Shu said perfunctorily.

"Not good! You obviously can't say it! Why lie to me? Do you think I'm old and my ears are back? ”

"Okay, good, what you said is right, okay!"

"Not good"

“……”

The attendants looked at the old man and the young man here, even if the young lady had given in, but the old man still did not give up, and the two of them argued until the end as if they were arguing with their waists.

They all smiled from ear to ear, only Qi Shu and Lao Bo were blushing and their necks were thick.

It wasn't until Qi Shu got into the carriage and the others were ready to go, that the bickering between the two was still not over.

After Qi Shu's carriage drove a long way, he could still hear a few faint words: "My tea is not good!" The voice was a little trembling, probably the old man jumped to his feet.

Just because of the old man and the young lady, the attendants were smiling on the road with red faces and thick necks, and I really didn't expect that the two people who couldn't touch the edge at all could compete like this because the tea was good or not, which was ridiculous.

Qi Shu didn't expect this old man to be like this, he just wanted to find an excuse to talk to him, but he didn't expect it to be so interesting, he was really a stubborn and tough old man.

Because he thought this old man was very interesting, Qi Shu wrote him into the letter and sent someone to send it to Ning Ze, I don't know what kind of reaction it would be in Ning Ze's opinion, and whether it would be the same as what she thought.

The journey was very smooth for a few days, and there were no accidents, and the guards were very conscientious to protect Qi Shu, not daring to make the slightest mistake, but fortunately, no one attacked Qi Shu again.

After arriving in Jiangnan, the settlement of these guards is also a problem, Qi Shu agreed with the mother-in-law in Jiangnan in advance, if someone comes, the mother-in-law's family is responsible for settling these guards.

Of course, Qi Shu's visit to Jiangnan this time was not for nothing, under Tang Lian's careful preparation, Qi Shu prepared a lot of valuable gifts, things that are only available in Shaoliang, etc., which can be regarded as fulfilling his heart. They were packed in large boxes and ready to be carried directly into my mother-in-law's house when the time came.

Qi Shu's trip this time was very secretive, except for a few people who knew, basically no one knew, even if he knew by accident, it was as if nothing had happened, and he lived his life separately.

Therefore, Qi Shu is also very happy and leisurely, no one disturbs, nothing to worry about, and his heart is relaxed.

Thinking of Ning Ze, who said that Shaoliang handled things for her, Qi Shu thought about it, and brought him some things when he returned to Qi Mansion, lest he still say that he didn't care about him and didn't appreciate him.
